If I can mix fandoms (though one at least is a bit suspect these days), number 6 is becoming our Defense Against the Dark Arts number these days - someone comes in, wears it and leaves again quick smart.

    Well spotted, 31! Perhaps it should be retired, having (since Matthew Bate) adorned Mitch Clark, Chris Dawes, Jordan Lewis, Luke Jackson and Brodie Grundy!

    Mitch Clark had jumper number #11 as I recall.

     

    But yes, it would be nice for a new Demons player to have jumper number #6 for a significant amount of time.

    Jack Billings wore jumper number #15. So therefore, he could possibly move to #14 or to whatever number is available.

    (1) Supremely correct 🙂 Thanks!

    (2) Frankly*, yes!

     

    * Adams or Davis for the younger among you!

    With some trepidation, I extend @Stretch Johnson's original line of thought, over on the Billings thread, to suggest #28 (or thereabouts?)

    He'll have to fight Rooey for it.  Do you mean #4 perhaps?

    4. Harley Reid - Would be fitting having Jack Watts present him his jumper.

    6. Vacant. Potential new number for McVee if he wants it.

    14. Jack Billings (wore 15 at St Kilda)

    23. Shane McAdam (same number as at Adelaide)

    27. Kynan Brown (reckon we'll grab him with our pick 42. Close to Nathan's old number)

    34. Tom Fullerton (because)

    39. Rookie pick.

    Many thanks, Tilly!

    I went looking for it but couldn't find it. You'd think it would've been in at least one of the longer online 'top' lists!

    I hope I got close from memory😁

    In the Amos I was no 10. Didn't care for it much and Amos being Amos there were no Jumpers for every round under the Sun and so, one day when playing our arch enemies ""The Bloods"I got my jumper ripped to shreds when I had.. Er an altercation with several of their players, Result the Only Jumper left at the bottom of the Bag which smelled like Mouse and Cockroach infested with a bit of Slithera Venom mixed with other Secretions which one could only imagine was this Moth eaten thing .... no 73. Anyway I played a cracker of a game in this thing, wondering why no one would come near me and so paid for a New Jumper proudly wearing No 73. Moral of the story..... 7 and 3 make!

    I made the number 24 famous at the combine Tooronga Malvern.  Perhaps the worst player to wear it !!!

    ...where I was, '72 to '76.

    But we were so nice! I'm sorry to hear we developed arch enemies!

    Who were you? (in quite a solid career, it looks like!)

    Guess we won't hear for a while but will be interesting to see what numbers all our recruits will receive.

    Don't think we did a # reveal like some other clubs did tonight?

    Perhaps #4 to Windsor and #6 to Tholstrup?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
